Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands - Chapter 213
Chapter 213: An assistant
Luo Huian glanced at the mer in front of her with a slight annoyance on her face. If this mer had not interrupted then she would have sent that woman to the police station where she was supposed to rot.
“I never thought that you liked playing the role of saviour,” she remarked sarcastically with an expression of derision. If not for the fact that Luo Huian couldn’t hurt the mer, she would have said something even harsher. “But then again you have to keep up with the public image?”
However, if she were to make such remarks and hurt others —it would go against her beliefs as well as her mission.
Wei Yucheng smiled gently at Luo Huian’s words. He shook his head and replied, “It would be better to say that I was playing the role of your saviour, Miss Huian.”
When Luo Huian looked at him in confusion, Wei Yucheng smiled at her. He leaned forward and whispered in her ears, “That thief was actually from a low-ranking guild. You might not be aware of this as you no longer have your memories but wars between guilds are banned and illegal.”
“Which means if you had gone any further than that, your sister’s guild would have been involved.”
Wei Yucheng glanced at Luo Huian who looked back at him, noticing the closeness between the two of them —Luo Huian pulled away from Wei Yucheng.
She squinted her eyes at him and questioned, “How do you know that she was from a low-ranking guild?”
“It is quite easy to detect,” answered Wei Yucheng as he straightened up after pulling away from Luo Huian. “The low-ranking guilds like to imprint their insignia on the skin of their members. That young lady had a mark on the back of her hand, if you had been paying attention then you would have noticed.”
He paused and added, “I believe that the young lady was sent to you on purpose. The people behind her must have wanted to cause trouble for the Heavens’ knights guild.”
“On purpose?” Luo Huian repeated with a stunned expression on her face. “Why would she be sent to me on purpose?”
Wei Yucheng touched his nose and then calmly replied, “It’s just something that the low-ranking guild likes to do a lot. It was their way of having fun— they would send one of their members to make trouble for high-ranking guild members. Once they succeed, they would take the matter to the association where they would claim that the high-ranking guild did it deliberately.”
“It could be for anything. Either resource or money.”
He then glanced at Luo Huian who seemed stunned by the amount of information he had disclosed, her innocent and confused expression was so much like the one she showed to him as a child and Wei Yucheng had this sudden urge to ruffle her hair.
‘No, if I do that, she will know who I am,’ Wei Yucheng thought as he clenched his fingers. As he was not even close to what he wanted to do, he couldn’t let her find out that it was him.
“So,” said Wei Yucheng with a smile. “I believe that your assumption about me helping that young lady is in fact incorrect.”
Luo Huian pursed her lips as she looked at Wei Yucheng who continued to peer down at her without making a move.
She wanted to turn around and leave but when the mer did not look away, she rather rudely asked, “What?”
“I believe that you owe me an apology,” replied Wei Yucheng without changing his expression. “I mean, after all, I rushed to help you and yet you blamed me. It was quite scary for me.”
“I am afraid that you might have left a scar on my heart.”
“I did —didn’t I?” Luo Huian sneered while gazing at Wei Yucheng who smiled at her and nodded, “I believe you did.”
Luo Huian glared at him but before she could tell him that he could forget about it, she heard Xiao Bai say, “Don’t be rude, Huian. He is right, he helped you just now—you cannot tell him off like you do the rest.”
“Don’t forget that you are here to change your behaviour, if you continue to act like this —you will only drag your punishment even more. Now be a good girl and apologise.”
Xiao Bai might have as well asked Luo Huian to go and kiss a mer on the street. For her that would have been easier for her as she peered at Wei Yucheng.
“Do I really have to?” Luo Huian asked Xiao Bai who glared at her with her golden eyes.
In a mother-like stern tone, she said to Luo Huian, “Of course, you have to, this mer helped you. He deserves a thank you and not an attitude. So, Luo Tingfeng Huian— say you are sorry.”
Luo Huian: “…” Great, her middle name was dragged as well.
She turned to look at Wei Yucheng who was still waiting for her apology.
“Damn this stubborn asshole,” Luo Huian muttered under her breath and Wei Yucheng’s expression turned a bit polite as he said, “Did you say something?”
Luo Huian closed her eyes and then through gritted teeth said, “I am sorry alright?” She could not believe it, the princess — the heiress of the Peace realm was now reduced to the point where she had to apologise to just about anyone.

“If you make a mistake then you are supposed to apologise, Huian! How many times have we taught you to do this?” Xiao Hei exasperatedly remarked and Luo Huian ignored him.
Apology? Haha. Has anyone given her an apology for what happened years ago? If their pride made it impossible for them to apologise to her, why should she?
Though she knew that Wei Yucheng did nothing wrong, and he was not the target of her wrath either and yet she couldn’t help but hate him.
Something about him reminded her of the gentle big brother who had betrayed her most viciously.
